This weekend Shawn says ...

Typically Shawn wants me to put him to bed. On Saturday, I usually have to spend some time for work. Yesterday, I told him that after I put him to bed, I still need to work. YT went out to buy some snacks from downstairs, Shawn said this to me, "Where is papa? Mommie go work. I want papa to pat me"

Then tonight Shawn was upset because I asked him to ask papa to help him brush teeth. He insisted of me patting him to bed. After much drama, I said, "Ok, I help you brush teeth. Why you do not want papa to brush your teeth?" Shawn replied, "Papa not feeling well"

Recently he is being terrible towards the end of dinner time. He got one 'good' time from us during dinner yesterday. Today, YT went to buy dinner. Shawn was 3/4 through his dinner and decided to join Dylan and me on the floor playing. When I heard YT coming back, I told him, "You better go and finish your dinner. Papa is just outside the house." He immediately climbed onto the dining chair and pretend to be eating.

His recent fruit craze is plum. I bought a punnet of plums and he was asking for it daily. Yesterday we ran out of it and I asked if I could give him apple. He said, "No, I want plum."

This morning while I was in the kitchn I heard him mumbling to himself, "I .... kneel... give knight" - YT was out of the house then

Self consoling statements:
